Nanette Mooradian McKay

Nanette was born in Brantford, Ontario, Canada, to Manoog and Valentin Mooradian, and was a fraternal twin to her sister, Nancy Mooradian Cappon.

She was preceded in death by her parents, her brother and sister-in law Leonard and Alice Mooradian of Belleville, Illinois, her twin sister Nancy of Dallas, Texas, her mother-in-law and father-in-law, George and Winifred McKay of Waterdown, Ontario, her brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Rev. Frank and his wife Isabel Rice of Nashville, Tennessee and a niece, Anne Rice.

She leaves behind her beloved husband of 63 years and main caregiver these past few years, George Leslie McKay, also of Toronto. In addition, survivors include her nieces, Lisa Torani and husband Joseph of Hilton Head, South Carolina, Christine Brewer of Naples, Florida, a nephew, Steve Rice of Nashville, Tennessee, and grand-niece Emma Rice, of Orlando, Florida.

Nanette began her administrative career with Metropolitan Life in Brantford, and then held several executive administrative positions with Occidental Life in Waterloo, Ontario, as well as Metropolitan Life and Allstate Insurance in Toronto. The next 20 years were spent in collaboration with colleague R.J. Stevens, on several technology-based ventures.

Always stylish, Nanette could be counted on to sport the latest hairstyles and fashion that would leave everyone, especially her nieces, filled with admiration and envy.
